OSD is okay, readable.

My LCD screen also has shiny glossy box, so without my laborously carved face mask, I would end just like you. I would never trust ANY screen finish out in daylight, use at last big black paper box as a shade for your laptop. That should help a bit.

I'm of the age that I need reading glasses (poor old fart ) making all this a little harder again to achieve. I'm starting to wonder weather using any cheap screen that is driven by composite video is worth the trouble... so many digital-to-analog and back again conversions from source to final viewing leaves the signal for display far from 'tack-sharp'. In a former life ( ) I was responsible for all maintenance/repair for a full-broadcast-spec television studio... as such I'm a little fussy about the quality of video I like to see.

What OSD hardware/software are you using?

Are you able to make out all the data that you want to, or is some of it just not sharp enough?
